This property specifies power up to audio out time. It's necessary beacause this device has to wait some time before ready to output audio after MCLK, BCLK and MUTE=1 are enabled. For more details about the timing constraints, please refer to WTN0302 on https://www.cirrus.com/products/wm8524/
According to that the delay is a property of MCLK and the sample rate rather than a per board constant, it shouldn't be in DT but rather the driver should figure out the required delay on each startup.
I can't agree with you more. From the power up to audio out timing table in WTN0302, the delay depends on sample rate and MCLK. Driver should calculate it rather than read it from DT. However as I mentioned in my last email, values in the table seem not accurate for all systems. It's a kind of compromise to get the value from DT. Do other codecs have a similar situation?
DT is for hardware properties, not for software compromises.
